With your pumpkin filling ready to go, it’s time to work with your puff pastry. Using a rolling pin, roll one puff pastry sheet to create a 12-inch square. Then, using a 2-inch circle cookie cutter (or biscuit cutter), cut out 16 circles. Repeat with the extra roll of puff pastry and set aside.

Top 16 circles with about 1 ½ teaspoons of the pumpkin filling. The edges of the pastry dough are brushed with a bit of egg mixture to help with sealing. Then, take another circle of puff pastry and lay it directly on top. Seal together the edges by pressing down on the edges with the tines of fork.

Brush the top of the pastry pies with egg mixture, cut three small slits on top of the pies. Sprinkle with coarse sugar. Place pies onto baking sheets. Bake 20 minutes, or until the pies are golden colored.
